Property Description
Rare coastal investment opportunity on Santa Cruz's highly desirable Lower Westside, just one block from the ocean and iconic West Cliff Drive. Steps from Lighthouse Field State Beach and the popular Steamer Lane Supply restaurant, this prime location consistently attracts strong rental demand driven by lifestyle, walkability, and proximity to Monterey Bay. One of the largest duplexes this close to the ocean, the property features a 3BD/2BA upper unit and a 2BD/2BA lower unit with a bonus room that functions as a third bedroom, maximizing rental flexibility and income potential. Each unit includes a private 2-car garage, a rare and valuable amenity for tenants near the coast. The upper units private yard with jetted hot tub adds further appeal for premium rents. Flexible income strategies: rent both units for strong cash flow, short-term (buyer to verify) or long-term rental, or occupy one unit while generating income from the other. Tenants will enjoy easy access to downtown Santa Cruz, the Santa Cruz Wharf, and the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, as well as immediate connectivity to coastal and mountain biking trails right from your front door. No need to load up the car. A rare combination of size, location, and versatility, an exceptional addition to any coastal portfolio.

No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
